The Deer at Gethsemani: Eclogues

Poetry January 2012 ISBN 978-1-936628-06-3 Softcover, 5½" x 8½"

"Like Virgil's before him, Frederick Smock's eclogues give us the sense of an earned peace
in the clear voice of a man at home in the world. These poems are richly allusive, elemental
moments of experience and insight. The Deer at Gethsemani is a well-made house of poetry,
and it is a true pleasure to spend time in its rooms."
- Greg Pape, Author of American Flamingo
